Hello Nomad friends. Gosh, Mr Mojo is obviously having an end of the month moment.
Hello Nomad friends. It's the Year of the Snake and I am sorry if you don't like them. My mum is ophidiophobic. I remember the day I tossed a shoelace onto the kitchen floor and she followed with a kilo of salt!!!! Sorry mum!! I think snakes are rather beautiful and curiously mesmerising and I couldn't resist these lovely papers from Alchemy of Art for their magical images.
Hello Nomad friends. More snowmen!! This is the mini version of Mr Frosty available in the TH Vault Winter Wishes die set!! Also fun but a bit more fiddle.
So cute I had to cut three!! Great for using small scraps, but not for using a lot of scraps LOL. A small piece of white, black and red with a tiny tiny touch of orange. This is a mini slimline size card, cut with spellbinders label die. I used the largest die for the base and the next one down for the crossbar. I embossed the base panel with Simon Says Stamp All Star Burst embossing folder and archival ink and the crossbar with Simon Says Stamp Splendid Snowflakes embossing folder. I cut the snowflake from the vault die set from blue glitter and added a foiled sentiment.

Hello Nomad friends. It's still warm and a bit overcast, and I really should be picking redcurrants, but my mind got distracted by snowmen and my body followed........
I folded my card base from a mottled brown card and then used sizzix Forest Shadows and Mr Frost dies and lots of little bits of card. I cut the sun/moon from a scrap of yellow and stamped the Kort og Godt Merry Christmas sentiment. First time using Mr Frost and he was surprizingly fun and easy to put together.

Hello Nomad friends. I am over at the Lost Coast Portal to Creativity today with some more Christmas in July inspiration. I decided to dress Boris in red and make him rock, which also fits with the 100th Christmas Kickstart Challenge where I am elfing out this month and the theme is Merry Go Round.
I stamped Carmen's Veranda Boris Karloff on white card and cut with a circle die. I coloured Boris with red sharpies and water coloured with distress inks. I stamped the star from Carmen's Veranda Elf with Star using salty ocean distress oxide on the still wet salty ocean water coloured background to give that nice smudged effect. I cut a slightly larger circle with a stitched circle die from blue card and used the star with the distress oxide to stamp all around the edge for a bit of texture. I cut a base card with the same stitched circle die. Boris rocks!!

Hello Nomad friends. I always like a good challenge. Sometimes it's nice to play safe, but then other times those more unusual elements grab mr Mojo's attention, he raises his sleepy head and says 'Huh!!' and I just know we are on a winner!!!!! Over on fb Boblende Kreativitet have a list of things we can have free!! Virtually....... We need to select three and then interpretate them using scrappy things. Mr Mojo thought this was worth getting out of the ice cream freezer for.........
TaDahhhhhhh! I picked free house payments (indicated by my house related sentiments and cute little wooden house backed by colourful scraps), free travel and free groceries (the gnomes have that covered LOL)
I ripped some small scraps of spiral galaxy printed paper and added those at the edges of the base layer before I started collaging the other bits in place.
The Scrap and Me gnomes have groceries in hand and the beautiful sunset, sea and mountain sticker is from a beer bottle label, and everyone knows beer is very important source of vitamins and minerals, as well as being very refreshing on a hot day.

Hello again Nomad friends. Seems Mr Mojo is on form after the refreshing rain. Watch out, this is a very yellow post!!!!
I embossed the holographic yellow card panel with sizzix rays embossing folder and cut with a stitch die. The sun is Simon Says Stamp You're Sharp dies and the happy birthday is from Simon Says Stamp Critter Crowd stamp set. Hope you have sunshine.
Hello Nomad friends. The rain has freshened the place up a bit, and since it's a bit soggy out at the moment I decided to rattle around a bit in my craft space. Found a couple of UFO's and zapped them together.
The grey pearlescent panel was embossed with sizzix dotted folder and cut with Simon Says Stamp rectangle stitched shape. Really like this ef for an anytime, anywhen, anyone sort of background. Then I added the big die cut cake using a Stamploration die.
Hello Nomad friends. Hope you are having a fun July. It's been busy, and now it's hot, but still busy. Hoping to make a few makes this week and kicking off the fun with this cute bunny on a scooter.
I used a sizzix embossing folder on brown card and gold aztec paint. The Craft Passion bunny is a cut out image and the hearts were triple embossed with red embossing powder
Hello Nomad friends. I have some red, white and blue Christmas in July inspiration for your today.

Hello Nomad friends. Happy July!! Halfway to the silly season and over at the Lost Coast Portal to Creativity we are all about Christmas this month. I am also elfing out with Jo's 100th Christmas Kickstart Challenge!! Awesome achievement and so much fun to be Jo's elf for this special challenge. The theme is Merry Go Round and we want to see spots, dots and circles on your xmas cards.
I've used the gorgeous Taco John from Lost Coast Designs and given him some furry baubles to bark at, created using Lost Coast Designs small Circle Shadow Frame and a bit of gold sharpie doodling. Taco John borrowed his hat from Lost Coast Designs Santa Mona. She is very good at lending it out and so stylish TJ!!
